Its friday and I ended it on a good note. wattpad was very kind today, with readers and comments and my story is almost in the top #100 for non-teen fiction. w00t. Click here to check out Emotionally Compromised. So I celebrated a little. 

Well really it was a celebration for the weekend, but it was an internal win in all areas of life this friday of October..tequila sunrises and great friends...


I am home now and it is just about midnight. There is no way I am even in a state to put ideas down on paper, or err, word document. I have just reached my bodies energy limit but this evenings slumber seems promising. I feel my journey approaching...


This past week has been absolutely dreadful due to the fact I have not been able to sleep. I have been only managing to fall into a restless sleep at 2AM and then wake up at 6AM from tossing and turning for 4 hours. It has been terrible since I love sleeping (like, its one of my most favorite things to do. Seriously). BUT NOW...after a little SoCal remedy I am eager to climb into bed, anticipating a wonderfully calm, fulfilling sleep. I feel it... The soldiers that are the hours of sleep lost wandering The Valley of Rumination, have been released from their ivory tower within my cavernous brain, cast away to be free and live out their lives fulfilling their mission through my passage unto slumberland, but don't forget to pay the toll. The sandman is waiting like the troll under the bridge. Think hard for his riddle will surely test you. Only the worthy shall pass....what the fuck just happened? Overdue sleep manifests its self via creative ramblings. I bid you good night because I am gonna be like...

sometimes posting on Wattpad and blows. I mean, I love it when i get honest (adult) readers but most of the time I think they run a little young. Its tough getting/gaining an audience. I want more reads and more feedback so I can become a better writer. When you read people's stories and comment its hard to have them return the favor. Sometimes that "dog-eat-dog-world" mentality is even relevant in the online writing world. Everyone wants their stuff read; everyone wants to be noticed. I know I am not alone in that one. I just want consistency, thats all. haha.

ALSO...My first chapter is 7 pages, and the readers think that its too long. Don't we read real books anymore? To be honest, in the finished product the first chapter will be a combination of the first two that are posted on wattpad. Its weird to have a fear of editing your first chapter by breaking up paragraphs because you are worried it will add page length. Woe is the life of a wattpad writer. ugh.

Ok, I am done ranting.

This will be the tagline to my book. She is no Al Capone --because she is on the good side, but she get can a lot more done with a smile and gun. Please check out my story "Emotionally Compromised"

Synopsis:

Alex Turner, a 24 year old federally trained secret agent has spent most of her existence running away from life and love and instead focusing on her job. Working in a man's world she has a lot to prove, and ridding her emotions of most situations seems to work best. But she is still just a girl underneath it all, and she can get herself into trouble sometimes. Being young, beautiful and deadly may have its perks, but getting the respect of her team is harder to come by. While finally getting the opportunity to prove herself being the main agent for a big case involving a biologically engineered disease, she thinks this is her chance to make her mark. Marcus Gibbs wants to sell his disease to the highest paying terrorist group. Thinking Marcus is her main objective --his boss, the attractive Jeremy Hunt, gets in the way and tries to get her to drop all her emotional walls. With the world's safety weighted on her shoulders, her constantly questioning ex-boyfriend (him also being her boss), and a new potential love interest getting in the way of everything she has a lot of serious choices to make
